HDMI is not the same as DVI. They both carry digital video, but HDMI carries digital audio as well. Most DVI-enabled jacks on TVs have encryption as well, so you really aren't beating the man by sticking with DVI.
HDMI is the cable of the future, once the other electronics get behind it: Videogame consoles, HD-DVD players, receivers, etc all plugged into one hub, with only one cable each. Three things I want from my next TV: 1. Multiple HDMI jacks 2. CableCARD slot 3. PC Input I'd take one with only one HDMI if Santa is real and gives me what I truly want for Christmas: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-FVbULGPdpcU/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?s=0&cc=01&g=10 420&id=morephotos&pi=2&i=033AV5805B&display=XL#Tab Tyler -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Graeme [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 3:28 PM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: CRT Widescreen > Make sure you get a TV with HDMI input(s) (don't worry about DVI). Why do you recommend HDMI? I'm personally put off by tech thats only purpose is to restrict. And since the difference between HDMI and DVI is DRM, I don't see any benefit. -Kevin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - CFDynamics http://www.cfdynamics.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:139131 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
